Origami, or paper folding is an art developed in ancient time by artists. Today, through the efforts are being made to connect mathematics with origami. Its basis was created when two mathematicians Huzita and Hatori created 7 axioms of origami.

It is also used in many other areas because of its interesting ability to convert 2D forms into 3D structures.
Problems
Let us now solve the following problem; Construction of a Regular Pentagon(on a square paper) 1. Single side of a pentagon measures (5^(1/2)-1)/2. 2. Fold the paper in half make a fold passing the corner and the creased corner made by the previous fold. 3. Match one of the divided sides to the previous fold transfer the subtracted length on one side of the paper. 4.
